I think would have more impact IF the Poster Child IS MEXICAN, but hei, I swim in strange places anyway.

Me: So, Shikira, then you are Ok with the fact that illegal aliens are exloited and paid about $3 per hour for their labor by american employers tha pocket the savings in profit?

Sahkira: Er...

Me: What about illegl alien roofers who work 11-14 hours a day for $3 per hour in dangerous jobs with no safety equipment, no harnesses, no workman's comp, no medical insurance if they are injured and are driven to work in the back of pickup trucks with no safety belts. It's OK with you?

Shakira: Um....

Me: Ms Shakira, dont you agree with me that ALL people working in this country should get a minimum wage, worklman's comp, safety equipment in compliance with our laws? Don't you agree anyone not providing this to its workers should be severely punished, even put out of business? Shouldn't ALL workers be able to complain to authorities if they are mis-treated? Shouldn't ALL women be free of sexual harassment and free to complain if they are harassed?

Ms shakira...come back, Ms Shakira what do you think of this? Please tell me you will not look away while Hispanics and other illegals are exploited and abused. Ms Shakira????

I would tell you that you seem to have a lot of generalized facts, bolstered by a few convenient 'real life stories' and you use them to back up your personal pitch on the problem with all illegal immigrants when in reality there is little more than a lot of hot air coming from you good sir.

Maybe I shouldn´t admit this but I always thought of her as allright. Of course my wife loves her. After hearing this drivel---no more. Another celebrity wackjob getting involved in politics and trying to puch their beliefs on others. One of these days these nuts are going to just shut up and be the entertainers they WERE. Yep, Shakira joins the ranks of U2, Bruce Springstean, and all the other worthless, celebs who have run out of talant and tried to turn political. I refuse to even watch TV anymore because of all the nut jobs who try to push their OPINIONS on others.

Once again, no proofreading. Just my truthfull rant!

These entertainers have confused their salaries for intelligence. Though, it's idiots like ourselves who empower and enable these losers. It never seizes to amaze me of how many people know more about the Steelers than their own community. Don't seem to smile when I mockingly point out they are earning $100 million to kick a ball around while this person works 9 to 5.

According to the Internal Revenue Service, the 400 richest American households earned a total of $US138 billion, up from $US105 billion a year earlier. That's an average of $US345 million each, on which they paid a tax rate of just 16.6 per cent.

That's what I was thinking when I saw your posts. Considering you and I have not been the best of buds in the past.
